Instant ballast-condition analysis
Selecting optimum tamping parameters is closely linked to the quality of the ballast. Thanks to a new system, it is now possible to determine its condition during penetration. This is achieved by measuring specific soil characteristics and the resulting calculation of a ballast coefficient. The application of this technology was analysed in detail as part of a collaborative research project.
